  • the first and second terminal members may be bent to have their lower ends positioned on the lower surface of the bottom member of the case.

  • the top edge part of the case may be provided with upward protrusions thereon, the planar cover part having throughholes formed therethrough correspondingly to these protrusions such that the protrusions can be inserted into the throughholes and the planar cover part can thus be secured to the case.
  • the first terminal member may comprise a flexible material bent by 180 degrees, having a contact point part at one end thereof contacting the thermistor element.

  • the second conductive member includes a second compression contact part attached to an upper part of the case for being pressed against the upper-surface electrode of the electronic element and a second connector part which extends on a side surface of the case and reaches the bottom surface of the case.
  • the first compression contact part may be provided with one or more protrusions for pressing the lower-surface electrode.
  • the case may be provided with engaging mechanisms on its mutually opposite side surfaces, and the second conductive member with a planar part for covering the case from above and vertically extending parts which cover its side walls and engage with these engaging mechanism so as to be securely attached to the case.
  • the second conductive member may comprise a flexible material, the second compression contact part being bent substantially by 180 degrees from the planar part.
  • the case may further comprise means for preventing motion of the planar part with respect to itself.
  • Figs. 1 and 2 show a thermistor 110 according to a first embodiment of this invention adapted for surface mounting, comprising a thermistor element (indicated again by numeral 101, being essentially identical to the element shown in Fig. 12 and described above), a case 112 with a first conductive terminal member 111, and a second conductive terminal member 114.

  • the thermistor 110 is formed by inserting the thermistor element 101 inside the case 112, closing the opening 112a by causing the planar cover part 114a to contact the inner top edge part 115a of the case 112 from above, deforming the outer top edge part 115b inward to thereby fasten the planar cover part 114a to the case 112.
  • the contact part 114b of the other terminal 114 is guided to the bottom surface of the case 112 through an outer side surface portion of the case 112.
  • the two electrodes 101a and 101b of this thermistor element 101 are elastically contacted with the contact end part 111a of the first terminal member 111 and the planar cover part 114a of the second terminal member 114, respectively, without being soldered to them, with the contact parts of the two terminal members 111 and 114 disposed at opposite ends on the bottom surface of the case 112.
  • the thermistor 110 can be mounted to a printed circuit board (not shown) covered with a cream solder, for example, by heating the contact parts on its bottom surface only once in a single soldering step.

  • Figs, 3-5 show another thermistor 120 embodying this invention, comprising two conductive terminal members (the first 121 and the second 124) and a case 122, in addition to a thermistor element 101 as described above.
  • the first terminal member 121 is made of an elastic material, having an arcuate contact part 121a at one end and being sectionally U-shaped at the other end.
  • the case 122 is made of an electrically insulating material in a box-like shape with an opening 122a at the top, having therein a space for containing the thermistor element 101.
  • One of the side walls of the box-shaped case 122 has a vertical slit 122f extending down to the bottom so as to be able to accept a downwardly extended portion of the first terminal member 121 therein.
  • the top edge part of the box-shaped case 122 surrounding its top opening 122a has an inner top edge part 122b and an outer top edge part 122c which is somewhat higher than the inner top edge part 122b.
  • a plurality (four in Fig. 4) of upward protrusions 122d are provided on top of the inner top edge part 122b.
  • the second terminal 124 comprises a planar cover part 124a at one end and a flat contact part 124b at the opposite end, as shown in Fig. 5.
  • the cover part 124a is provided with throughholes 124c corresponding to the aforementioned protrusions 122d for allowing these protrusions 122d to be inserted thereinto.
  • the first terminal member 121 is attached to the case 122 with its arcuate contact part 121a placed above the upper surface of the bottom member of the case 122, and having its U-shaped end part engaging with the bottom member of the case 122.
  • the thermistor element 101 is inserted into the case 122, the planar cover part 124a of the second terminal member 124 is contacted from above with the inner top edge part 122b, and the outer top edge part 122c of the case 122 is deformed inwardly, after these protrusions 122d are inserted into the throughholes 124c, to secure the cover part 124a of the second terminal member 124 at the opening 122a of the case 122.
  • the flat contact part 124b of the second terminal member 124 is led to the bottom surface of the case 122 opposite from the U-shaped end part of the first terminal member 121.
  • the thermistor 120 With the thermistor 120 thus formed with its thermistor element 101 mounted inside the case 122, the two electrodes 101a and 101b of this thermistor element 101 are elastically contacted with the arcuate contact part 121a of the first terminal member 121 and the cover part 124a of the second terminal member 124, respectively. No solder is required for this purpose, and contact end parts of the two terminal members 121 and 124 are both on the bottom surface of the case 122.
  • the thermistor 120 can be mounted to a printed circuit board (not shown) covered with a cream solder, for example, by heating the contact end parts of the terminal members on its bottom surface only once in a single soldering step. As shown in Fig. 3, there is a space 122e created between the upper surface of the bottom member of the case 122 and the thermistor element 101 because the arcuate contact part 121a of the first terminal member 121 is elevated from the bottom member of the case 122.
  • the protrusions 122d of the case 122 are deformed after the protrusions 122d are inserted into the throughholes 124c of the second terminal member 124, to thereby fasten the cover part 124a of the second terminal member 124 to the case 122.
  • the outer top edge part 122c is unnecessary.
  • Thermistors for surface mounting according to this invention can be soldered to a printed circuit board by a single step of reflow soldering because their contact parts for external connection are both on the bottom surface of the case. Since the thermistor element is not directly soldered, heat is not applied to the electrodes of the element. The thermistor element is subjected to a thermal stress only once by the soldering. Since the heat of soldering is communicated to the element only indirectly through an empty space, the rise in the temperature of the element is much reduced, and no cracks are generated thereby. The heat generated by the thermistor element itself, when the thermistor is actually in use, is conducted cut to the circuit board through the case. Thus, there are no ill-effects on the circuit board or other electronic elements placed near by.

More particularly, this apparatus 1 comprises a planar PTC element 2 having a pair of electrodes on its upper and lower surfaces, a case 3 which contains the PTC element 2, a first contact terminal member 4 buried inside a lower part of the case 3 and a second contact terminal member 5 attached to the top surface of the case 3.

  • the compression contact part 42 is for making a contact with the lower-surface electrode 24 of the PTC element 2.
  • the lead line part 43 serves not only to electrically connect the aforementioned connector terminal and compression contact parts 41 and 42 but also as means for radiating off the heat generated by the PTC element 2. As shown in Fig. 10, the lead line part 43 has a wider part 431 and a narrower part 432.
  • the connector terminal part 41 is formed by bending a tip portion of the wider part 431, and the narrower part 432 extends to the compression contact part 42.
  • the lead line part 43 is made as much longer as possible than the shortest distance by which the positions of the connector terminal and compression contact parts 41 and 42 on the case 3 can be connected.

  • the first lead terminal member 4 is then bent downward, as it is exposed to the exterior, along the outer surface of the side wall 3b inside the vertically formed groove 34 thereon, reaching the bottom surface 3e of the case 3.
  • the depth of the aforementioned groove 34 is approximately the same as or greater than the thickness of the wider part 431 so as to prevent it from protruding outward from the outer surface of the side wall 3b.
  • an elliptical hole 44 is formed through the wider part 431 where it connects to the narrower part 432 to form a narrow-path region 431a and to thereby reduce heat conduction therethrough.
  • the lead line part 43 is stretched from the compression contact part 42 to the bottom surface 3e by making a large upward detour and since a narrow-path region 431a is provided in the wider part 431, the conduction route of heat from the PTC element 2 to the connector terminal part 41 is made as long as practically possible so as to reduce the amount of heat traveling therethrough.
  • the compression contact part 42 has a circular upward protrusion 421 formed in the middle for making a point contact with the lower-surface electrode 24 of the PTC element 2 such that the heat conduction through this contact to the first lead terminal member 4 will be reduced.
  • the protrusion 421 need not be circular in shape but may assume any other reasonable shape such as an ellipse or a rectangle.

  • the connector terminal part 41 is generally in the shape of a rectangle as shown in Fig. 10, formed by bending an end portion of the wider part 431 as shown in Fig. 7. Its shape, however, is not limited to be rectangular but may be circular or elliptical.

  • the inwardly protruding engagement means 521 and 531 are provided on the side edge parts 52 and 53, respectively, for engaging with the steps 32 and 33 and thereby preventing the second contact terminal member 5 from disengaging from the case 3.
  • the compression contact part 54 is formed by bending a protruding piece extending from the planar part 51, as shown in Figs. 6 and 7, downward in a hair-pin style such that the free edge of this extending piece will be positioned below a center region of the planar part 51, as shown in Fig. 7.
  • This free edge is slightly bent upward so as to provide a downwardly convex surface by which the upper-surface electrode 23 of the PTC element 2 is pressed downward.
  • the second contact terminal member 5 functions as a spring such that the reaction to the force of the PTC element 2 to the compression contact part 54 is absorbed and deformation and breakage of the material are prevented.
  • the hair-pin curvature formed as shown in Fig. 7 the force applied to this bending portion of the second contact terminal member 5 tends to push the compression contact part 54 towards the upper surface of the case 3. This has the favorable effect of keeping the second contact terminal member 5 attached to the case 3.
  • Fig. 11 shows another terminal member 5' which can replace the second contact terminal member 5 described above as incorporated in the apparatus 1. Parts of this member 5' which are comparable or function equivalently to those of the member 5 described above are indicated by the same numeral for convenience.

  • the lead line part 56 (whether as a portion of the alternative member 5' shown in Fig. 11 or the second contact terminal member 5 shown in Figs. 6-10) comprises an elongated piece extending from one edge 51a of the planar part 51 and is bent downward into the groove 35 formed at the center of the side wall 3a. Its free edge part is bent along the bottom surface 3e of the case 3 to serve as the connector terminal part 55.
  • Fig. 9 shows an assembly process for the electronic apparatus 1.
  • the PTC element 2 is placed from above into the space 31 inside the case 3, into the walls of which the first lead terminal member 4 is already partially buried, and the second lead terminal member 5 is placed over it such that its planar part 51 and the side edge parts 52 and 53 will cover the upper and side surfaces of the case 3.
  • the wider part 431 of the first lead terminal member 4 is extended perpendicularly from the side wall 3b of the case 3.
  • the lead line part 56 of the second lead terminal member 5 is originally coplanar with the planar part 51 and extended perpendicularly to the side wall 3a of the case 3.
  • the case 3, into which the first lead terminal member 4 is partially buried, is produced in a plurality of units by punching a belt-like elongated hoop member 40 into a desired shape having a plurality of first lead terminal members 4 connected in a single line as shown in Fig. 10.
  • Each first lead terminal member 4 is placed inside a mold for corresponding one of the cases 3 and a resin material is injected into the molds to unistructurally form the cases 3.
  • Individual cases 3 are produced thereafter by removing connecting parts 40a of the hoop member 40.
  • the compression contact part 54 of the second lead terminal member 5 compresses the upper-surface electrode 23 of the PTC element 2, and the compression contact part 42 of the first lead terminal member 4 compresses the lower-surface electrode 24 of the PTC element 2, thereby holding the PTC element 2 securely inside the internal space 31 of the case 3.
  • the engagement means 521 and 531 formed on the side edge plates 52 and 53 slide downward along the side walls 3c and 3d until they engage with the steps 32 and 33 to be locked. In this manner, the second lead terminal member 5 is prevented from moving upward and sandwiched condition of the PTC element 2 between the compression contact parts 42 and 54 is maintained.
  • the wider part 431 protruding from the side surface 3b of the case 3 and the lead line part 56 extending from the planar part 51 of the second lead terminal member 5 are extended such that the connector terminal part 41 of the first lead terminal member 4 and the connector terminal part 55 of the second lead terminal member 5 are on the bottom surface 3e of the case 3.
  • the PTC element 2 is placed inside a container comprising the case 3 and the second lead terminal member 5 and is ready for surface mounting. Since the electronic apparatus 1 for surface mounting is produced merely by assembling the PTC element 2, the first and the second lead terminal members 4, 5 and the case 3 which are all independently and preliminarily produced, the production process is much simplified.
  • apparatus containing other kinds of electronic elements such as an NTC element and a piezoelectric element having electrodes on its upper and lower surfaces can be similarly produced according to this invention.
  • the invention is particularly effective for PTC and NTC elements for current control which tend to produce heat at the time of operation.
  • a surface mounting device as described above, makes the surface mounting of an electronic apparatus easy. Since the electrodes of the element are not directly connected to the circuit board, the heat at the time of soldering does not damage the ceramic material of the element or its electrodes. If one or more protrusions are provided on the compression contact part of the first lead terminal member, the transfer of heat generated by the electronic element itself to the circuit board is limited such that the ill-effects of such heat on other electronic components placed near by can be reduced.
  • the engaging means on the side walls of the case make the assembly of the apparatus easier. Since the second lead terminal member includes a 180-degree bending, forces applied from the element are absorbed thereby and deformation and breakage of the member can be prevented.
